Bucyrus to host back to school fair

The Bucyrus City School District will host its first ever district-wide Back to School Fair August 20.

The event will include open houses at both the Elementary and Secondary schools, dinner for open house attendees in the Secondary School Commons and the annual Fall Meet the Teams Pep Rally.

The schedule of events for this event includes:

• Elementary (PK-5) Open House – 5:00-6:30 p.m.

• Secondary (6-12) Open House – 6:00-7:30 p.m.

• Dinner in Secondary School Commons – 6:30-7:30 p.m.

• Fall Meet the Teams Pep Rally at the Athletic Complex – 7:45 p.m.

All students and parents are encouraged to attend this important event. Teachers and administrators will be in attendance, and attendees will have the opportunity to visit classrooms. Each person who attends one of two open houses will receive a redeemable ticket for a free dinner that evening.

“This is a new event that we thought would be a good way for students and parents to visit their respective school building and visit with teachers and prepare for the new school year,” Superintendent Kevin Kimmel said. “We also wanted to combine this event with our annual community Fall Pep Rally to show our student- athletes that the entire school community stands behind them this season.”

During both open houses, attendees will have the opportunity to provide feedback to the district through a short online survey being conducted by the Ohio School Boards Association.

Anyone who completes the survey during either open house will be entered into a drawing for an iPod Touch. For more information about this event, please contact the Lincoln Administrative Center at 419-562-4045.
